Hi all,
again some progress (baby steps): the (I choose Red for negative) single digit 7-segment displays arrived today, so I put those in.
The only thing I still have to do is find the A4 polyester film so I can print the "letter-mask" for the indicators.
(Difficult in a small Spanish pueblo....)
I managed to make the mask in "Word", using a monospaced font called 'Lucinda Console'.
It needed some playing around with the character size and spacing but using size 5 and spacing extended with 0,6 point gave me a 0,1" spacing like the LED-bars.
I also shrunk the line-spacing using 'exact 5 points', so I could use 3-chars terms like 'CAL', 'BAT', 'MIN', etc.
When I can print this on a transparent film in real black on my laserprinter it should work OK. (the picture is still paper)
Un saludo,
Satbeginner
